REPORT // GRAPPA MASSIF TOUR I (2019)

PANNIER

June 2019 marked an exciting time for Pannier, and the #15KPHClub: the first in our series of guided bikepacking tours outside of the UK – teaming up with clothing brand PEdALED to explore the quiet mountain roads, gravel tracks, walled-towns and alpine rifugios of their Venetian Alps backyard.

Here is a photo essay of our three-night, three-day gravel hut-to-hut bikepacking tour >> hope you enjoy. Thanks to all the tourers that joined … ’twas a pleasure to host, and we’re already looking forward to next year 2020:

To avoid any confusion – “Grappa” in our Grappa Massif naming does not just refer to the alcoholic drink whose provenance lies in the Alpine foothills we explored, but also to the range of 2000m mountains – in particular the famous Monte Grappa, 1775m (where we spend the first day and evening of the tour) – an incredible high place overlooking the Veneto Plain – rich in history, colour, roads, tracks … and fantastic rifugio food and drink…
